Genara LP elru084 2010

Surrealist Flamenco for Classic Pop guitar.

The 6th album from Dekrypton Joel could be defined as Surrealist Flamenco with Pop and Classic guitar, (maybe influenced by, the Cuban composer, Leo Brouwer and the Brazilian composer, Heitor Villa-Lobos).
In the confection of this sixth album, the improvisation was much less practiced, it´s more reflected, studied, therefore the second guitar was demanded much more than only to make the solos or the ground ornaments.

All themes were made in guitar duets, with the exception of "Evrim Tuzun" and "Scarface Girl Ripped off My Heart" a couple of guitar trios, reminding the first albums, where the guitar trios were part of a creative cycle, the cycle of the first four albums, when almost all of the improvised guitar trios were recorded at first attempt expressing the virginity value of absolute improvisation, volcanic gush, radiation near to the speed of light.
The fifth album came up as an exercise of metallic chords, the principle to the end. A concentration of Folk-Pop-Rock subjects, finger-picking, almost without references to the Flamenco but with references to the classic guitar.

Genara is a romantic album, a tribute to beauty in women, again in the Flamenco mode we best know from him but with the simplicity of only two main guitars, D. Joel is offering an expression of delight and joy thru his music, simple thing.
